Hello, I am havin trouble with My computer.
When i am doing absoulutely nothing, (or somthing), on my desktop a Popup appears. If i leave my computer for a while i get a screen full of popups. They come from nowhere and i dont know how to stop them.
Ive done a virus scan, Adaware Scan, Disk Cleanup, and Disk Defragment. None worked.
does anyone have any clue as to how to prevent these popups from appearing?

Thank You.

Thanks for the update.
Try this free active x On-line Spyware Scan
and remove all it finds.

You may also d/l crap cleaner and ATF-cleaner and run those to remove all your cookies, temp files and clean your caches and helps to speed up other scans you will do.

If the active X scan doesn't clean it all, you may want to do a few scans in safe mode with networking using:
Housecall
Kaspersky
BitDefender

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks
